Following success at the Qatar World Cup with Argentina and winning the Leagues Cup in his opening games with Inter Miami, Lionel Messi sat down and chatted to Zinedine Zidane
In an interview arranged by adidas Football at Inter Miami, the two football legends sat down and discussed a variety of topics, from what they thought about the state of football today to who inspired them to choose their shirt numbers.
"Although I was able to erase it a little bit with this World Cup, it is still there," Messi told the Frenchman. Zidane then replied, saying that Messi "changed" his story after helping lead Argentina over France to win the 2022 World Cup. Then in 2018, Messi and Argentina were knocked out in the Round of 16, 4-3, by France, the eventual champions. With Messi leading Argentina to a World Cup victory in 2022, he was able to achieve a goal that eluded him his entire career.After winning the World Cup, Messi then transferred to the David Beckham-owned MLS franchise Inter Miami.
